Abstract
Simultaneous measurements of specific heat, electrical resistivity, and hemispherical total emittance of niobium-1 (wt. %) zirconium alloy in the temperature range 1500 to 2700 K by a subsecond duration pulse heating technique are described. Estimated inaccuracy of measured properties are: 3 percent for specific heat and hemispherical total emittance, and 0.5 percent for electrical resistivity. Properties of the alloy are compared with the properties of pure niobium. It was found that specific heat and emittance of the alloy were approximately 0.5 percent and 1.5 percent, respectively, higher than those of pure niobium. Electrical resistivity of the alloy was 0.5 percent lower than that of pure niobium. Like niobium, the alloy showed a negative departure from linearity in the curve of electrical resistivity versus temperature.Keywords
